Marsh golf

Great course layout and in very good condition. Greens were lightening fast but true. Senior golfers and ladies are presented a fair challenge from the two shortest tees. The back tees are not for the faint of heart or skill challenged; a real test for those who want it.

Gotta Play!

Been playing here for about 5 years. Recently, someone has been spending a lot of money. The greens are beautiful and fast Now the tee boxes are pristine. They’ve paved the parking lot too. Bargain price on green fee! Same great layout.

Bang for your buck!!

This course is always in great shape. Each hole has its own character and challenge. Wish I was closer to the course because I would definitely play it more often. Can’t say enough good things about it.

This course is worth endorsing

This course has so much potential. It was bought by the locals after closing during the recession. They work very hard trying to improve and maintain this place. It has a great layout. Yes it does need work in certain areas but it is very playable. I play this course about once to twice a week when I’m southern GA. It is a ride but if you’re playing golf for the day it’s worth the trip. All this course needs is a little more public support to get players out there. Again great layout best collection of par 3a around and greens usually pretty good.

This place is a GEM!

We were so pleased with this course layout, the natural beauty of the marsh frontage (which we heard is the only of its kind along the coast) and the friendly staff. Don't know why folks go to the crowded and pricier courses around Savannah or St Simons when this place has it all and MORE. Just a short 15 minute drive off Interstate 95. Just visit their website to see drone footage of each hole and you will see what I mean! Lovely community surrounds with great seafood at Speeds Kitchen and Hunters Cafe.

MGA Fifth Tuesday

The course is in excellent shape - bermuda greens, fairways and rough. Fairways rolled nicely and the greens were moderately fast. The heat was mitigated by some nice breezes but had to be aware and adjust for the wind.

Great Round

Sapelo is always a fun round and this was no different. Course was in great shape. They trimmed the Bermuda around the greens making missing the green less penile. The greens were a little slow but very smooth. Fairways and tees were great and don’t have even a tiny negative to say.. I brought a friend for his first time and he said he’d be returning as well.
